Methods for rapid extraction of microcystin-LR and microcystin-RR
浙江大学学报. 农业与生命科学版, 2005 Simple analysis methods using microwave and boiling waterbath to solve the problem for microcystin-LR (MCLR) and microcystin-RR (MCRR) extraction from cyanobacteria cells were studied as a substitute for the traditional solvent extraction methods. Standards were used to confirm the feasibility and efficiency of both methods.
